Noblesville has for years talked about the Great Flood of 1913. Moving forward, it will now be the Great Flood of 2026.

The White River continued to fall Sunday morning after reaching approximately 24.56 feet in Noblesville early Saturday, surpassing the historic 1913 flood.

The river stood at 21.61 feet at 6:45 a.m. Sunday, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. That remained more than seven feet above flood stage.

The National Weather Service said major flooding was continuing along the White River. A river flood warning remains in effect through Wednesday evening, although the river is forecast to drop below flood stage Wednesday morning.

A news conference featuring a long list of local officials is scheduled Sunday morning in Noblesville. Fishers Mayor Scott Fadness is among those expected to participate.

In Fishers, two monitored waterways showed modest improvement overnight. Mud Creek declined to 7.89 feet by 6:45 a.m., while Sand Creek at 116th Street dropped to 4.33 feet shortly after 6 a.m.

No new overnight deaths, evacuation orders or boil-water advisories were reported in Fishers or Hamilton County as of early Sunday. However, additional thunderstorms could produce locally heavy rainfall and aggravate existing flooding.

An area flood warning was scheduled to remain in effect until 10 a.m., with a flood watch continuing until noon.

Numerous roads remained closed. Hamilton County’s latest list included Hazel Dell Parkway between 96th and 106th streets, Woodcreek Drive near 116th Street, State Road 38 at Hague Road, State Road 19 at Logan Street and Forest Park, and State Road 13 between State Roads 32 and 37.

Officials urged motorists to consult the county’s live closure map and never attempt to cross a flooded road.

A reception center for displaced residents is operating from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Sunday and Monday at Expo Hall A at the Hamilton County Fairgrounds, 2003 Pleasant Street in Noblesville. Volunteers and donations are also being coordinated there.

Five deaths have been reported statewide during the broader storm and flooding emergency, but none in Hamilton County. Local officials said everyone requiring rescue in Noblesville had been accounted for.

A federal emergency declaration has been approved for Indiana to support the state’s response.
